Opened officially in May 2006, the Montauk Playhouse Community Center has become the social and recreational hub of Montauk. The rehabilitated historic building currently boasts 24,000 square feet of finished space, offering facilities, programming and services for six-week olds through 110-year olds.
On any given day, you can find residents and visitors playing basketball in the gymnasium, doing crafts in the Child and Senior Day Care programs, joining friends for lunch and socializing at the Senior Nutrition Center, playing in the outdoor children’s playground, taking in a quick workout at Body Tech Fitness Center, or even scheduling a physical therapy appointment at Manual and Sports Therapy.
Phase I rehabilitation and construction cost approximately $7 million.The Town of East Hampton bonded for most of this amount. Supplementary funding came from a $350,000 grant awarded to the Town of East Hampton by the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation for the initial restoration of the structure, and monies raised by the Montauk Playhouse Community Center Foundation (MPCCF).
